Ribosomal protein S4 nucleates assembly of the 30S ribosome 5′ and central domains, which is crucial for the survival of cells. Protein S4 changes the structure of its 16S rRNA binding site, passing through a non-native intermediate complex before forming native S4-rRNA contacts. Ensemble FRET was used to measure the thermodynamic stability of non-native and native S4 complexes in the presence of Mg2+ ions and other 5′-domain proteins. Equilibrium titrations of Cy3-labeled 5′-domain RNA with Cy5-labeled protein S4 showed that Mg2+ ions preferentially stabilize the native S4-rRNA complex. In contrast, ribosomal proteins S20 and S16 act by destabilizing the non-native S4-rRNA complex. The full cooperative switch to the native complex requires S4, S16, and S20 and is achieved to a lesser degree by S4 and S16. The resulting thermodynamic model for assembly of the 30S body illustrates how ribosomal proteins selectively bias the equilibrium between alternative rRNA conformations, increasing the cooperativity of rRNA folding beyond what can be achieved by Mg2+ ions alone. 相似文献

Interaction of the Bacillus stearothermophilus ribosomal protein S15 with its 5'-translational operator mRNA 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The Bacillus stearothermophilus ribosomal protein S15 (BS15) binds both a three-helix junction in the central domain of 16 S ribosomal RNA and its cognate mRNA. Native gel mobility-shift assays show that BS15 interacts specifically and with high affinity to the 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) of this cognate mRNA with an apparent dissociation constant of 3(+/-0.3) nM. In order to localize the structural elements that are essential for BS15 recognition, a series of deletion mutants of the full cognate mRNA were prepared and tested in the same gel-shift assay. The minimal binding site for BS15 is a 50 nucleotide RNA showing a close secondary structure resemblance to the BS15 binding region from 16 S rRNA. There are two major structural motifs that must be maintained for high-affinity binding. The first being a purine-rich three-helix junction, and the second being an internal loop. The sequence identity of the internal loops differs greatly between the BS15 mRNA and rRNA sites, and this difference is correlated to discrimination between wild-type BS15 and a BS15(H45R) mutant. The association and dissociation kinetics measured for the 5'-UTR-BS15 interaction are quite slow, but are typical for a ribosomal protein-RNA interaction. The BS15 mRNA and 16 S rRNA binding sites share a common secondary structure yet have little sequence identity. The mRNA and rRNA may in fact present similar if not identical structural elements that confer BS15 recognition. 相似文献

Assembly of the 30S ribosomal subunit occurs in a highly ordered and sequential manner. The ordered addition of ribosomal proteins to the growing ribonucleoprotein particle is initiated by the association of primary binding proteins. These proteins bind specifically and independently to 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Two primary binding proteins, S8 and S15, interact exclusively with the central domain of 16S rRNA. Binding of S15 to the central domain results in a conformational change in the RNA and is followed by the ordered assembly of the S6/S18 dimer, S11 and finally S21 to form the platform of the 30S subunit. In contrast, S8 is not part of this major platform assembly branch. Of the remaining central domain binding proteins, only S21 association is slightly dependent on S8. Thus, although S8 is a primary binding protein that extensively contacts the central domain, its role in assembly of this domain remains unclear. Here, we used directed hydroxyl radical probing from four unique positions on S15 to assess organization of the central domain of 16S rRNA as a consequence of S8 association. Hydroxyl radical probing of Fe(II)-S15/16S rRNA and Fe(II)-S15/S8/16S rRNA ribonucleoprotein particles reveal changes in the 16S rRNA environment of S15 upon addition of S8. These changes occur predominantly in helices 24 and 26 near previously identified S8 binding sites. These S8-dependent conformational changes are consistent with 16S rRNA folding in complete 30S subunits. Thus, while S8 binding is not absolutely required for assembly of the platform, it appears to affect significantly the 16S rRNA environment of S15 by influencing central domain organization. 相似文献

In bacterial ribosomes, the small (30S) ribosomal subunit is composed of 16S rRNA and 21 distinct proteins. Ribosomal protein S15 is of particular interest because it binds primarily to 16S rRNA and is required for assembly of the small subunit and for intersubunit association, thus representing a key element in the assembly of a whole ribosome. Here we report the 2.8 ? resolution crystal structure of the highly conserved S15-rRNA complex. Protein S15 interacts in the minor groove with a G-U/G-C motif and a three-way junction. The latter is constrained by a conserved base triple and stacking interactions, and locked into place by magnesium ions and protein side chains, mainly through interactions with the unique three-dimensional geometry of the backbone. The present structure gives insights into the dual role of S15 in ribosome assembly and translational regulation. 相似文献

Interaction of ribosomal proteins S6, S8, S15 and S18 with the central domain of 16 S ribosomal RNA from Escherichia coli 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

The co-operative interaction of 30 S ribosomal subunit proteins S6, S8, S15 and S18 with 16 S ribosomal RNA from Escherichia coli was studied by (1) determining how the binding of each protein is influenced by the others and (2) characterizing a series of protein-rRNA fragment complexes. Whereas S8 and S15 are known to associate independently with the 16 S rRNA, binding of S18 depended upon S8 and S15, and binding of S6 was found to require S8, S15 and S18. Ribonucleoprotein (RNP) fragments were derived from the S8-, S8/S15- and S6/S8/S15/S18-16 S rRNA complexes by partial RNase hydrolysis and isolated by electrophoresis through Mg2+-containing polyacrylamide gels or by centrifugation through sucrose gradients. Identification of the proteins associated with each RNP by gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate demonstrated the presence of S8, S8 + S15 and S6 + S8 + S15 + S18 in the corresponding fragment complexes. Analysis of the rRNA components of the RNP particles confirmed that S8 was bound to nucleotides 583 to 605 and 624 to 653, and that S8 and S15 were associated with nucleotides 583 to 605, 624 to 672 and 733 to 757. Proteins S6, S8, S15 and S18 were shown to protect nucleotides 563 to 605, 624 to 680, 702 to 770, 818 to 839 and 844 to 891, which span the entire central domain of the 16 S rRNA molecule (nucleotides 560 to 890). The binding site for each protein contains helical elements as well as single-stranded internal loops ranging in size from a single bulged nucleotide to 20 bases. Three terminal loops and one stem-loop structure within the central domain of the 16 S rRNA were not protected in the four-protein complex. Interestingly, bases within or very close to these unprotected regions have been shown to be accessible to chemical and enzymatic probes in 30 S subunits but not in 70 S ribosomes. Furthermore, nucleotides adjacent to one of the unprotected loops have been cross-linked to a region near the 3' end of 16 S rRNA. Our observations and those of others suggest that the bases in this domain that are not sequestered by interactions with S6, S8, S15 or S18 play a role involved in subunit association or in tertiary interactions between portions of the rRNA chain that are distant from one-another in the primary structure.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Ribosomal protein S15 binds specifically to the central domain of 16 S ribosomal RNA (16 S rRNA) and directs the assembly of four additional proteins to this domain. The central domain of 16 S rRNA along with these five proteins form the platform of the 30 S subunit. Previously, directed hydroxyl radical probing from Fe(II)-S15 in small ribonucleoprotein complexes was used to study assembly of the central domain of 16 S rRNA. Here, this same approach was used to understand the 16 S rRNA environment of Fe(II)-S15 in 30 S subunits and to determine the ribosomal proteins that are involved in forming the mature S15-16 S rRNA environment. We have identified additional sites of Fe(II)-S15-directed cleavage in 30S subunits compared to the binary complex of Fe(II)-S15/16 S rRNA. Along with novel targets in the central domain, sites within the 5' and 3' minor domains are also cleaved. This suggests that during the course of 30S subunit assembly these elements are positioned in the vicinity of S15. Besides the previously determined role for S8, roles for S5, S6+S18, and S16 in altering the 16 S rRNA environment of S15 were established. These studies reveal that ribosomal proteins can alter the assembly of regions of the 30 S subunit from a considerable distance and influence the overall conformation of this ribonucleoprotein particle. 相似文献

We have examined the effects of assembly of ribosomal proteins S5, S6, S11, S12, S18 and S21 on the reactivities of residues in 16 S rRNA towards chemical probes. The results show that S6, S18 and S11 interact with the 690-720 and 790 loop regions of 16 S rRNA in a highly co-operative manner, that is consistent with the previously defined assembly map relationships among these proteins. The results also indicate that these proteins, one of which (S18) has previously been implicated as a component of the ribosomal P-site, interact with residues near some of the recently defined P-site (class II tRNA protection) nucleotides in 16 S rRNA. In addition, assembly of protein S12 has been found to result in the protection of residues in both the 530 stem/loop and the 900 stem regions; the latter group is closely juxtaposed to a segment of 16 S rRNA recently shown to be protected from chemical probes by streptomycin. Interestingly, both S5 and S12 appear to protect, to differing degrees, a well-defined set of residues in the 900 stem/loop and 5'-terminal regions. These observations are discussed in terms of the effects of S5 and S12 on streptomycin binding, and in terms of the class III tRNA protection found in the 900 stem of 16 S rRNA. Altogether these results show that many of the small subunit proteins, which have previously been shown to be functionally important, appear to be associated with functionally implicated segments of 16 S rRNA. 相似文献

The Bacillus subtilis RNase M5 activity, responsible for the endonucleolytic maturation of 5 S rRNA, requires two proteins, alpha and beta. The beta component has been purified to homogeneity and shown to correspond to ribosomal protein BL16. The BL16 protein evidently corresponds functionally to Escherichia coli ribosomal protein EL18, as that latter protein also will complement the B. subtilis alpha protein in the RNase M5 reaction. A filter binding assay for the formation of B. subtilis 5 S rRNA-protein complexes was characterized and used to evaluate the association of BL16 protein with some RNAs. A native precursor of 5 S rRNA, containing extra sequences at both termini of the mature domain, binds the ribosomal protein no better than the mature 5 S rRNA; the precursor sequences do not facilitate that interaction. A model is considered in which the precursor segments facilitate, by refolding, the dissociation of processing products prior to the RNase M5 step. Electrostatic versus nonelectrostatic contributions to the BL16-5 S rRNA complex formation were inspected by analyzing variation in apparent association constants as a function of ionic strength. Electrostatic interactions were seen to contribute approximately 65% to the overall binding energy. 相似文献

Stepwise dissociation of yeast 60S ribosomal subunits by LiCl and identification of L25 as a primary 26S rRNA binding protein 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Treatment of yeast 60S ribosomal subunits with 0.5 M LiCl was found to remove all but six of the ribosomal proteins. The proteins remaining associated with the (26S + 5.8S) rRNA complex were identified as L4, L8, L10, L12, L16 and L25. These core proteins were split off sequentially in the order (L16 + L12), L10, (L4 + L8), L25 by further increasing the LiCl concentration. At 1.0 M LiCl only ribosomal protein L25 remains bound to the rRNA. Upon lowering the LiCl concentration the core proteins reassociate with the rRNA in the reverse order of their removal. The susceptibility of the ribosomal proteins to removal by LiCl corresponds quite well with their order of assembly into the 60S subunit in vivo as determined earlier [Kruiswijk et al. (1978) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 517, 378-389]. Binding studies in vitro using partially purified L25 showed that this protein binds specifically to 26S rRNA. Therefore our experiments for the first time directly identify a eukaryotic ribosomal protein capable of binding to high-molecular-mass rRNA. Binding studies in vitro using a blot technique demonstrated that core proteins L8 and L16 as well as protein L21, though not present in any of the core particles, are also capable of binding to 26S rRNA to approximately the same extent as L25. About nine additional 60S proteins appeared to interact with the 26S rRNA, though to a lesser extent. 相似文献

The 23S rRNA nucleotides 2604-12 and 2448-58 fall within the central loop of domain V, which forms a major part of the peptidyl transferase center of the ribosome. We report the synthesis of radioactive, photolabile 2'-O-methyloligoRNAs, PHONTs 1 and 2, complementary to these nucleotides and their exploitation in identifying 50S ribosomal subunit components neighboring their target sites. Photolysis of the 50S complex with PHONT 1, complementary to nts 2604-12, leads to target site-specific photoincorporation into protein L2 and 23S rRNA nucleotides A886, Alpha1918, A1919, G1922-C1924, U2563, U2586, and C2601. Photolysis of the 50S complex with PHONT 2, complementary to nts 2448-58, leads to target site-specific probe photoincorporation into proteins L2, L3, one or more of proteins L17, L18, L21, and of proteins L9, L15, L16, and 23S rRNA nucleotides C2456 and psi2457. Chemical footprinting studies show that 2'-O-methyloligoRNA binding causes little distortion of the peptidyl transferase center but do provide suggestive evidence for the location of flexible regions within 23S rRNA. The significance of these results for the structure of the peptidyl transferase center is considered. 相似文献

Protein-RNA associations were studied by a method using proteins blotted on a nitrocellulose sheet. This method was assayed with Escherichia Coli 30S ribosomal components. In stringent conditions (300 mM NaCl or 20° C) only 9 E. coli ribosomal proteins strongly bound to the 16S rRNA: S4, S5, S7, S9, S12, S13, S14, S19, S20. 8 of these proteins have been previously found to bind independently to the 16S rRNA. The same method was applied to determine protein-RNA interactions in spinach chloroplast 30S ribosomal subunits. A set of only 7 proteins was bound to chloroplast rRNA in stringent conditions: chloroplast S6, S10, S11, S14, S15, S17 and S22. They also bound to E. coli 16S rRNA. This set includes 4 chloroplast-synthesized proteins: S6, S11, S15 and S22. The core particles obtained after treatment by LiCl of chloroplast 30S ribosomal subunit contained 3 proteins (S6, S10 and S14) which are included in the set of 7 binding proteins. This set of proteins probably play a part in the early steps of the assembly of the chloroplast 30S ribosomal subunit. 相似文献

We have previously reported the development of a technique utilizing nitrocellulose filters, which rapidly separates ribosomal protein-ribosomal RNA complexes from unbound protein. We have used this technique to obtain binding data for the association of proteins S4, S7, S8, S15, S17, and S20 with 16S RNA. With the exception of protein S17, the association behavior for each of these proteins exhibits a single binding site with a unique binding constant. The apparent association constants have been calculated and have been found to have a range from 1.6 x 10(6) M-1 for protein S7 to 7.1 x 10(7) M-1 for protein S17. The Scatchard plot for the protein S17 binding data is biphasic, suggesting that within the RNA population two different binding sites exist, each with a different apparent association constant. 相似文献

Ribonucleoprotein particles (RNPs) are important components of all living systems, and the assembly of these particles is an intricate, often multistep, process. The 30 S ribosomal subunit is composed of one large RNA (16 S rRNA) and 21 ribosomal proteins (r-proteins). In vitro studies have revealed that assembly of the 30 S subunit is a temperature-dependent process involving sequential binding of r-proteins and conformational changes of 16 S rRNA. Additionally, a temperature-dependent conformational rearrangement was reported for a complex of primary r-protein S4 and 16 S rRNA. Given these observations, a systematic study of the temperature-dependence of 16 S rRNA architecture in individual complexes with the other five primary binding proteins (S7, S8, S15, S17, and S20) was performed. While all primary binding r-proteins bind 16 S rRNA at low temperature, not all r-proteins/16 S rRNA complexes undergo temperature-dependent conformational rearrangements. Some RNPs achieve the same conformation regardless of temperature, others show minor adjustments in 16 S rRNA conformation upon heating and, finally, others undergo significant temperature-dependent changes. Some of the architectures achieved in these rearrangements are consistent with subsequent downstream assembly events such as assembly of the secondary and tertiary binding r-proteins. The differential interaction of 16 S rRNA with r-proteins illustrates a means for controlling the sequential assembly pathway for complex RNPs and may offer insights into aspects of RNP assembly in general. 相似文献
